| households where wit abOuuds money is
scarce, and these who could contribute
much to soci9l pleasure are debarred on
the score of economy. A pleasant reunion

refreshment than q nice sandwich and cup
Of hot coffee tsStefully served. Dainty
cups and saucers, pretty cloth AMI tiow-
ers artistically distributed will make so
simple repast inviting; the way of doing
things has much TO do with results. For
preparing q set lunch there can be no
trouble, so many are the wsys given, and
pretty devices are never wanting when
| the hostess adjusts her thinking esp. In
/ arranging for soup ct luncheon now boUil-
| Ion cups are used, or in absence of these
any pretty china cup with a handle will
answer. The regular ores have handle
on each side. The cup is now considered
better form than sOUp-plaIe, dain;ineSs

| serving ice-CreHm in faucliul little dishes
Of different color. Ia many instances these
are in form CT roses, tulips and other flow
erS. The cid idea Of sets in dishes is oDsG-
| lete, the effort Row being IL have as much
variety as possible. The o:d fashioned
